The Brits and Scots were very involved with both sides of the 1919 Winnipeg Strike. To recognize this centenary event at our 149th Annual Dinner on November 29 at the Hotel Fort Garry, Danny Schur writer, composer and producer will perform excerpts from his movie Stand! and play Strike! The Queens Own Cameron Highlanders will also provide wonderful Scottish tunes.

This is the most prestigious event on the Society’s calendar that celebrates and raises funds for Scottish culture and heritage groups and activities in Manitoba!

This year’s dinner will be somewhat different from previous dinners. There will be fewer speeches and more time to enjoy an evening of Scottish music such as the traditional 4-course beef dinner (with a taste of Scottish fare and drink) and exceptional entertainment to celebrate 100 years of the Winnipeg Strike.

A portion of the ticket sales is donated to the St. Andrews Society Trust Fund. Tickets are $150 for members and $160 for non-members and $2500 for corporate tables which come with preferred seating.

Tickets are available on Eventbrite or through Pam Simmons, Secretary by calling 204 487 7181 or emailing your ticket order form to standrewssocietyofwpg@gmail.com.Ticket order forms can be downloaded from the website at HERE.
